Giants move into MetLife Stadium

Giants Stadium, once a state of the art venue when it opened back in 1976, was no longer the standard when it came to NFL stadiums. The Giants teamed with the Jets to finance a $1.6 billion behemoth of a building that somehow ended up being more utilitarian, bland and generic than the old stadium.

The building had some difficulty landing a naming rights deal and operated its first two seasons under the name  New Meadowlands Stadium before MetLife agreed to put its name on the building in 2012.

To help defray the cost of the stadium, the Giants slapped season ticket holders by applying a personal seat license for each seat in the building. The Jets also put in PSLs with the exception for the seats in the upper bowl.

To date, the Jets have yet to play a postseason game in at MetLife and the Giants have played just one.
